Step aboard the legendary Venetian gondola for an unforgettable journey, gliding through the most enchanting canals of Venice and passing underneath the iconic Bridge of Sighs, an architectural masterpiece that weaves together history, romance and a touch of melancholy.

Settle into your seat, and let be guided by a local gondolier in his iconic striped shirt. Drift along the hidden narrow canals on this leisurely 25/30-minute ride, immersing yourself in the city’s alluring secrets.

This is a slow ride, ensuring you to have ample time to soak in the atmosphere and truly appreciate the beauty that surrounds you, from the moment you step on board to the one you disembark.
